Why Rondo is Better than Williams! He can travel!

I agree with your conclusion, but it seems you are arguing against a point that the author did not make. The author does not say "that single play make Rondo better than Williams", he says "this play is a perfect example why."


I've seen Deron make plenty of hustle plays also, if that's what the author is trying to imply? There is no article really, when I opened it up I figured there'd be more than just a few words and a clip.

Another thing-his header is in regards to Rondo/Dwill. Does that mean he is merely comparing the two, or implying that they are the 2 best in the NBA at the position? Hard to tell but at least Deron garners enough respect that it doesn't say "Why Rondo is better than Chris Paul (or Parker, or Kidd, Nash, etc)"
 
Isn't Rondo a better defender? I agree the Celtics overall are a better team than the Jazz, but I do think Rajon Rondo has managed to put together a better all-around game than Deron that goes beyond just being surrounded by more all-star type players.

Perhaps (or maybe definitely) he's had better mentoring from veteran players. I think that's something that's definitely been lacking for Deron with the Jazz, for the most part.
 
Um, Deron can't dunk better than every PG out there. I can name a bunch that are much better dunkers than he is. He's not even the best dunking PG on the team.

Deron can't dunk? Try these....

I could go on and on, but please don't say Derron cant dunk! He is amazing and we are all privileged to witness his Gr8tness!

Can you read? I never said Deron can't dunk.
 
Not saying he's always made them but, if its in the final seconds of a close game, i'd much rather have Deron shooting than Rondo. But of course, in the closing seconds of a game, Boston's likely looking for Pierce or Allen, whereas Deron's the best option we have (Memo when healthy would be 2nd IMO).
 
....you replace Rondo with Deron....and the Celtics probably sweep through the playoffs! There's nothing that Rondo does that Deron doesn't do better! Rondo just has a much better supporting cast than we do. Deron is just as quick, smarter, much better outside shooter, rebounds as well.....is more coachable. Heck, I can't think of a single thing Rondo does better than Deron, can you? Nobody in his right mind would trade Deron for Rondo at this stage of their careers!
 
For the last two posters that say he would be average or there's nothing Rondo can do better than Deron Williams. Let's start with crazy triple doubles. Rondo boards better than DWill and there's not question about that. I think DWill is better (especially his shot) but Rondo is silky smooth good.
